"Spring, Arlington Gardens" ©

 Spring has had a tough time this year due to the lack of rain.  Arlington Garden in South Pasadena has just a few signs of spring a few lupin, poppies and flowering trees.  Saturday and Sunday I will be at the Garden painting and showing a few pieces as part of the foundation annual fund raiser.  By then all the trees and plants should be covered in tiny new green leaves.

"Poppy Reserve" ©

A bunch of us drove up to the California Poppy Reserve in Lancaster, CA to paint the brilliant splashes of orange before the show is over. It was interesting to paint in such a windy, dry place, I found sand in my ears!
